A strip (10, 50, 80, 100, 102, 170, 220, 222) for use with a surgical stapler (150, 200) facilitates sealing tissue of a patient, such as the lungs, stomach, etc. The strip (10, 50, 80, 100, 102, 170, 220, 222) includes retaining elements (20, 22, 62, 64, 70, 94, ...
Tissue arising chiefly from the embryonic mesoderm that is characterized by a highly vascular matrix and includes collagenous, elastic, and reticular fibers, adipose tissue, cartilage, and bone. It forms the supporting and connecting structures of the body. ...
Mechanical tension stimulates fibroblasts to form proto-myofibroblasts, containing actin stress fibers that form complexes with extracellular connective tissue fibers. The growth factor, transforming growth factor β1 (TGF β1), along with the extracellular connecting molecule fibronectin, promotes the ...
By using epifluorescence microscopy, Vaughan and Fisher showed the presence of F-actin in the connecting cilium of photoreceptors, and Sale and co-workers showed that microtubules within the cilium and elliposid of the photoreceptor are acetylated (1,2). Although cell isolation is an obvious ...

(i.e., diastole). The valves of the heart1further include the pulmonary valve9, which separates the right ventricle4from the pulmonary artery11, and may be configured to open during systole so that blood may be pumped toward the lungs, and close during diastole to prevent blood from ...
While the present invention is specifically directed at transurethral treatment of the prostate, certain aspects of the invention may also be used to treat and modify other organs such as brain, heart, lungs, intestines, eyes, skin, kidney, liver, pancreas, stomach, uterus, ovaries, testicles, ...
As the name implies,connective tissueserves a connecting function: It supports and binds other tissues in the body. Unlikeepithelial tissue, which has cells that are closely packed together, connective tissue typically hascellsscattered throughout an extracellular matrix of fibrousproteinsand glycoproteins...
